A highly scalable product that helps organizations solve problems easily and produces a high return on investment
Sometimes, the initial setup is hard. We don't find the components to solve the exact problem. We need to get some scripts. It can take time. The time taken for deployment depends on the processes. Complex processes take days. Sometimes, we get processes that can be completed within hours. We usually get complex processes.

Significantly reduces manual effort and improves team workflows through automated ticketing
We've used Agent Builder, IXP, and Maestro for orchestration. We have created context-grounded searches or chatbots using context grounding, and we also use context grounding within an Agentic flow where a bot or agent reads ServiceNow tickets to determine whether it has been assigned to the right work group. If it has not been assigned correctly due to human error, it automatically reassigns it to the right group. I would assess Agentic AI's ability to extract data points as effective. We created an agent for the purpose of extracting data, though not in a document. We created what we call an email conversation agent that engages with a customer, vendor, or someone in an email conversation with a set goal of extracting specific data points for an action to be performed subsequently. The one automation we have deployed in production involves the agent interacting with team members to collect data points and create a ServiceNow ticket. We appreciate almost all features of UiPath Platform, with one of the most successful ones being the use of Coms Mining. Most of the new features related to AI have all been good, and we use Agentic. We have already created a few agents and have started to use Maestro for a few flows, though we are not yet there to orchestrate an end-to-end workflow. We have good ROI from the automations we have developed with UiPath Platform, which far exceeds the investment in the platform. It has saved us tens of thousands of hours in manual effort, making the team members happy to pursue other things of value.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product helps us solve problems easily and immediately."
"The most valuable feature is the easily accessible tool, such as the ARI framework, which I have used extensively."
"Insights have been super valuable because they help us determine the benefits of our bots."
"In health care, everything is still on paper. People still fax papers to each other. Doctors have a sheet of paper or a packet of information about a patient that they can't read quickly. UiPath's Document Understanding lets doctors get a document that's already processed, and they can ask it questions."
"Being able to customize this is extremely helpful for us because we have other attended automation processes, and they can each be tailored to the needs of the business."
"The steps, documentation, and information are pretty straightforward when it comes to the product, so there is no ambiguity."
"This solution saves us time in all areas."
"The ability to connect various systems that do not have any kind of API between and the areas where we need to mimic what a human does to a system in terms of input and output is valuable."
"I like the structure of the selectors. They're robust. With other software like Automation Anywhere, we always have problems with recorders, plugins, et cetera. UiPath is more powerful and efficient. UiPath Studio has features like the Excel package, selectors, and recorders."
 

Cons

"The solution must provide more AI services."
"From a licensing and pricing perspective, scaling becomes challenging."
"UiPath's process mining needs to improve a lot. The generated reports are difficult to analyze by ordinary people. Task mining reports are also difficult."
"Some of the documentation that UiPath has around the technical specifications, from a security perspective, are very factual and comprehensive, but they don't have an audience, like CIOs who need to approve this solution."
"Overall the training and documentation could be better. There's just so much of it, so a streamlined way to get to the information I need would be ideal."
"When someone starts an automation, there should be some notification window on the screen to provide information about the flow's status and progress."
"Unfortunately, I used to be a lover of their Slack channel and people don't seem so responsive there anymore."
"While the UiPath Academy is simple and you get a decent understanding of what's there, you still have to dedicate an awful lot of time doing the automations to become proficient at them."
"Building automations can be difficult at times with some of the activity packages and documentation being out of date, but we have a TAM that we work with that is very helpful in making sure that RRGs are known and that we get the results within the UiPath structure."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is cheap in Turkey."
"The UiPath license is a little expensive, but we get a lot of good features for the price."
"It is not a cheap solution. There is an annual licensing cost for all the components."
"I am using the free community version. The enterprise version is obviously a little expensive."
"UiPath is affordable compared to Blue Prism or AutomationEdge. A basic license covers the cost of implementation and recurring fees that depend on the complexity of the processes and workflows."
"It's costly compared to other tools in the market. Other than that, it is very good."
"We saved a little over $600,000. That totaled to almost 19 FTEs which we ended up saving."
"The pricing is good compared to other software. Based on the features that UiPath is providing, and the community support, the price is reasonable."
"The licensing fees for this solution are $8,000 USD annually."
